Episode #282 – Fonta Flora Brewery – Grisette

Today we are drinking beer out of Fonta Flora Brewery of Morganton, the Bloody Butcher Appalachian Style Grisette with Fox Farm Bloody Butcher Corn. With an emphasis on seasonal flora, Fonta Flora brings English tradition and Belgian inspiration to the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina. The Bloody Butcher is a super rustic Appalachian style working class beer featuring local barley, wheat and rye from Riverbend Malt House, heritage Bloody Butcher red corn, sorghum cane juice and toasted sorghum seeds, all from Fox Farms in Burnsville. Bloody Butcher corn is a blood-red corn originating in the 1800’s by mixing Native American corn with the white settlers’ seed.
